6 Moments Where WWE Wrestlers Shed Tears in the Ring

#4 Chris Benoit, Chavo Guerrero, Rey Mysterio

In November 2005, former WWE champion Eddie Guerrero passed away due to heart failure. Eddie was discovered in his hotel room by his nephew and fellow WWE wrestler, Chavo Guerrero.

On the day of his death, Guerrero was booked in a triple threat match against Batista and Randy Orton for the World Heavyweight Championship.

The week after his passing, WWE paid tribute to Guerrero with special episodes of Raw and Smackdown playing the week that he passed away.

The shows also saw special matches performed, with many wrestlers donning arm bands with the initials "EG" written on them.

Many wrestlers also spoke highly of Guerrero and told stories of Guerrero's life and what his legacy meant to them. The wrestlers who gave testimonials included Rey Mysterio, Chris Benoit, and Chavo Guerrero.

While Benoit openly wept while talking about his friend during his testimony, Chavo and Mysterio were also crying onstage as a 10-bell salute was held for Guerrero.

Mysterio would pay tribute to his former Tag Team partner and rival by finishing his match with a Frog Splash, which Guerrero adopted from the late Art Barr.
